Southwold Boating Lake and Tearoom

At this quirky 1940s-style tearoom in Southwold on The Suffolk Coast,
you're always guaranteed a warm and friendly welcome. The Southwold
Boating Lake and Tearoom is open daily Monday to Friday 11.00am to 3.30pm
Weekends 10.00am to 4.00pm, winter opening is purely weather dependent, and
serves a range of tasty light
breakfasts and lunches, and fresh homemade snacks. True to The Suffolk
Coast's field to fork philosophy, everything from the soups and sandwiches
to the scones and cakes are made using local produce wherever possible.

Inside, the tearoom can seat 16 people comfortably, with far more seating
available outside. Families and friends can also hire the venue for birthday
parties, anniversaries, mother and toddler groups, small wedding parties
and coach parties. Outside on the boating lake veranda there are some
lovely Lloyd Loom chairs, which are extra comfortable on a chilly day
or evening when you're wrapped up warm in one of the tearoom's
fleecy blankets. On the rear lakeside veranda there's even more fully
covered seating overlooking the beautiful lake and islands. It's the
perfect location for doing a spot of bird watching, or simply chilling
out and watching the world go by.

Southwold Boating Lake and Tearooms have taken the traditional cream
tea experience once step further, by serving it on one of the lake's
several islands! Stood in the middle of the lake with its willow fencing
and comfortable seating for over 60 people, the island is the perfect
place for you to sit back and enjoy a scrumptious cream tea surrounded
by wonderful wildlife and beautiful views. Who could ask for anything
more?
